This or That

Hi Dollies,

I always love to see This or That's on blogs. It's so fun to read other people's opinions :)

So, that's why I made this This or That! 

1. The Sweet Savannah Dress OR Isabelle's Metallic Dress?

2. Isabelle's Sparkly Skort OR the Flower Skirt?

3. The top from the Sunny Isle Shirt OR the top from the Easy Breezy Outfit?

4. The brown with pink hat OR the white with green and a flower hat?

5. The white sunglasses OR the brown sunglasses?

My opinion:

1. Oh my dollie, this is hard!! I think the Sweet Savannah Dress, because it's really classic and I love the print!
2. The Flower Skirt. This one is my favorite skirt, TBH. It's so bright and floral!
3. The Sunny Isle shirt. The yellow is perfect for the summer and I love the detail of some gemstones on the shoulder of the top!
4. The brown with pink hat, because this one suits every outfit.
5. Ohh… HARD!! I literally can't choose. They are both so cool!

Tell me your choices in the comments down below :)

XOXO,

Pretty Lilly - an American Girl

AG pool fun

Hi dollies,

Here is a photo story about Caroline, Rory, Kanani and Isabelle who have lots of fun at the pool!

They all look really good in their swimsuits.
Caroline's swimsuit is a retired MAG 2-in-1 swim outfit from American Girl.
Rory is wearing the floral swim outfit from AG. Kanani is wearing the retired blue tankini from AG. And Isabelle is wearing a retired in-store-only swim outfit.

Caroline and Rory are having a great time with their dog Barksee and their treats from the Beach Chair Set from American Girl.

Don't forget to use the sunscreen when you're tanning! This sunscreen is cute, because it's pink :)

Isabelle is… well, I guess she's taking her beauty nap, hihi.

Kanani is reading Saige's book to get to know her a little better. It's a really good book!

Isabelle woke up and she and Rory and Caroline went in the swimming pool.
"That is so refreshing!" said Caroline. "Absolutely!" said Rory.

Our dollies own quite a big flip flop collection!

Kanani said "Don't forget our delicious treats!"

Caroline said "These fruit kabobs are really good."
They all had an amazing summer day!!

I also made a video of this!! Go check it out here or in the sidebar ->

What's your perfect summer day? Please tell me in the comments down below :)
